66 × 88"

This size is big enough to go atop a queen bed and perfect for you to curl up with another adult.

This unique quilt is handmade by me in the central highlands of Washington State. I don’t use patterns and every quilt I make is spontaneous and composed as it is created. For most of my quilts I compose the front and then I create the backing out of the same or complimentary fabrics in a paired down version of what is happening on the front.  For these double backed quilts I decided to start with the back and then make a 2nd back, so its double sided!  This quilt is more  simply constructed but with the same color and textural dynamism in fabric choices as my other quilts.  This allows me to offer them at a lower price.  It also allows me to showcase larger pieces of rad fabrics from my collection that are too cool to cut up in to bits!

I think this quilt is so cool. It is really simple but the curve cutting across each side is so designy. Plus its brown. Brown looks good in everyones house, AND it hides spills. I’m a disastrous eater, so maybe if I wasnt such a slob i could own white things, until then its all brown, black, and dark blue. Even messy idiots like me can live is style!

All of my quilts are made with 2nd hand fabrics sourced from the fashion and interior design industries as well as vintage shops and estate sales. This way I get fabrics unavailable to anyone else and give some rad old fabrics a new life for you to love! The fabrics may carry a visual history of their previous life (wear marks in a pair of old jeans or the red wine stain of a linen tablecloth). These choices are intentional, showing the character of the journey of the fabric.

All of my quilts are intended to be used.  They can of course be hung on a wall but I make them to be slept under or picnicked on top of.  I wash the one on my bed yearly in the  washing machine on cold and gentle, then line dry it and toss it in the dryer quickly to fluff it.  I don't recommend doing it more regularly than this.  It is well constructed but still it is handmade.  Contains a variety of cotton, linen and wool fabrics.  100% cotton mid weight batting inside. Do not dry clean.  

I love everything I make and I hope you do too.
